There are various rangefinders on the market today. There are ones that won’t break the bank and then there are ones that will cost you a quarter of your paycheck. But more expensive and more buttons and settings doesn’t always mean better. It’s all in the eye of the beholder as they say. In reality it really has to do with your skill on the different kinds of rangefinders on the market. You can find reviews and links to purchase them at sites like Top Golf Rangefinders and make your decision there. But here are some of the ones to look at if you are looking to get the best bang for your buck.
Bushnell Tour Z6
If you are looking for one that is approved during USGA tournaments you can go with this one. It’s a laser, as are all of them unless otherwise specified. This one can measure from 5-1,300 yards within ½ yard accuracy. For everything that it offers you, this would be good for casual and pro golfers alike. This will be the best one that your money can buy right now with everything that you need to improve your skills.
Leupold Gx-3i Series
Another that is approved for use in USGA tournaments; this one also offers you a lot of features to have you improving your game in no time. With a fog feature you can even measure distance when the weather is a bit overcast. This one is the priciest so if you are looking to shell out some serious dough, than this one is for you.
Bushnell Pro X7
Bushnell is on this list again, as one of the most prominent makers of rangefinders for golfing (there are other rangefinders that have different modes for hunting and such). However this one is not approved for use in a USGA tournament due to its slope measurements which can give a golfer an unfair advantage.
VPRO500 Golf Rangefinder
Another good one, this one is approved for USGA tournaments, which is good for those who want to use it both in practice and real games. It is one of the lightest laser rangefinders on the market which makes it attractive for those who want something lighter (even though they are all pretty light in general). This will be the best bang for your buck. And the V3, which you see below, would come in a close second.
Bushnell Tour V3 Standard Edition
I did say that Bushnell was well known right? Well here is another one from them. This one again is approved for use with the USGA tournaments. This one could be something that a novice user could easily use and get the hang of without much work.
Finding and purchasing a rangefinder is something that you might consider if you are going to the range and the green more often, especially if you want to improve your game. Take a look and consider the options, you just might find your key to making your game that much better, even if it’s just by a few strokes.
